The Eighth Crusade

ByRod Norgrove

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
It is 1312AD,Saladin,s Islamic hordes rule the East whilst Pope Clement V has abolished and executed the last of the Templar Knights.Actually the year marks the inauguration of the Sons of Sion, a fanatical Catholic sect based in a hidden fortress in southwest France near the mysterious village of Rennes le Chateau.This shadowy organisation was and still is tasked with the financial investments of the Vatican in order to acheive the destruction of Islam as decreed by Pope Urban II. .Selecting documented world events from the disappearance of Jewish Gold with the conivance of Pope Pius X to the missing weapons of mass destruction and the desire of the late Iraqi regime to use them, the novel is a controversial viewpoint on the widely held belief that the current Islamic extremists are acting without provocation, when in fact elements of Rome never gave up their determination to finally defeat the Infidel.Current Internet threats against the Sion Crusaders merely add credance to this viewpoint
